Other orders are usually processed within 24-48 hours.

After processing is complete, shipping time is dependent upon the shipping method selected at checkout.

Precise delivery times to Alaska and Hawaii cannot be precisely determined.

BACKORDER POLICY

Both GLC and DF do not sell back ordered merchandise. There are substantial lead times on some items due to low volume and the often custom-made nature of those items. However, both GLC and DF do not allow tactical equipment orders to be placed we or our partners or suppliers have the equipment physically in stock in a warehouse. Occasional inventory discrepancies may occur due to a lag time between inventory updates from our suppliers, inaccurate inventory counts, and other errors. In those instances, you will be notified as soon as GLC and DF is aware of the problem and your order will be either refunded or held until the item is in stock and we are able to ship it.  Both GLC and DF will generally refund payment under such conditions but may at its sole discretion choose to hold the order and ship it as soon as the item is in stock.
